I’ve told you guys before about my consistent desire for a savory breakfast (instead of, say, pancakes…though don’t get me wrong I do love those too).

what i'm making

about me

I grew up in Rochester, NY and am making Salem, MA my home.
I'm a home cook, yoga novice, and lover of all things dog (especially mine, Baxter). I work as a digital strategy consultant at IBM iX. I'm based out of Cambridge, MA, but travel all over for work. One of the best perks of my jobs is scoping out the food scene in tons of cities around the world!
I think all the best foods have elements of crunch, salt and sweetness, and I always save the best bite for last.
